How to compress an image to 150KB
- Choose your images. Click the box above, drag files in, or paste a screenshot.
- Set a size. Type the maximum KB you need, or pick a quality level instead.
- Download. Save each image, or all of them at once as a ZIP.
When do you need a 150KB image?
A 150KB limit is common for scanned documents, ID proofs and clear photos for online portals. If your image is larger, the website will reject it. This tool searches for the highest quality that still fits under 150KB. If the image can't fit even at lower quality, it reduces the pixel dimensions slightly so the result stays sharp rather than blocky.
Tip: Before you upload, check the official instructions for required dimensions (for example, width and height in pixels or cm). Use the "Max width" option above if a specific width is required.

Frequently asked questions
How do I reduce a JPEG to 150KB?
Add your image above. The target is already set to 150KB, so the tool automatically compresses it under 150KB and you can download the result immediately.
Will my photo be exactly 150KB?
The result will be just below 150KB, and always under 150,000 bytes, so it passes whether the form counts 1 KB as 1,000 or 1,024 bytes.
My form needs a minimum size too. What should I do?
Some forms ask for a range, for example between 10KB and 150KB. The tool aims as close to the maximum as possible, so the result normally falls inside the range. If your photo is too small, use the Increase Image Size tool (compressjpeg.site/increase-image-size-in-kb) to reach the minimum.
Is it safe to compress ID photos and signatures here?
Yes. Your images are processed on your own device and are never uploaded to any server.
